Today, visit the Mehrangarh Fort, which is one of the most massive forts in India and real pride of India. The fort houses several palaces inside, with large patios. The main palaces are Moti Mahal, Phool Mahal, Sheesh Mahal, Takht Vilas, and Jhanki Mahal. Next destination is Jaswant Thada-a royal cenotaph built in the memory of Maharaja Jaswant Singh II. A white marble memorial, the cenotaph is adorned with exquisite carvings.
The tour continues to Umaid Palace; it is one of the famous places to be seen in the whole of Rajasthan and is a testimony of what architectural beauty should be.
In the afternoon, we will take a jeep safari to meet the Bishnoi community and get a close look into the unique tribal life of the area. The Bishnoi tribes are known for their respect for the environment and devotion towards conservation of local flora and fauna and particularly the endangered blackbucks. The trip offers an opportunity to see the skills of tribal people in making traditional crafts such as rug-weaving, pottery, etc. You will have a chance to taste traditional food and opium tea and enjoy Kalbeliya, a folklore dance performed by the gypsy tribes.
